A Comparison of Radiologic Tumor Volume and Pathologic Tumor Volume in Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)
OBJECTIVE To investigate the difference between preoperative radiologic tumor volume (RTV) and postoperative pathologic tumor volume (PTV) in patients who received nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed 482 patients who underwent preoperative computed tomography (CT) within 4 weeks before radical or partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma. RTV measu...
متن کاملOptimum Contouring Method for Metabolic Tumor Volume Using PET/CT in Patients with Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The metabolic tumor volume (MTV) is the volume of metabolically-active tumor on PET/CT. Although its potential clinical value has been investigated in many cancers, its routine use has been hampered by the delineation method used to calculate the tumor volume. This may be especially difficult for fuzzyPET images. Previous studies have used a lot of approaches for delineation of tumor volume; ho...
متن کاملCorrelation between p33ING1b Cytoplasmic Transfer and Lymph Node Metastasis in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma is the sixth most common malignancy in the world today. ING1b/p33 is a newly-discovered tumor suppressor which enhances p53 activity. Transfer of p33 protein from nucleus to cytoplasmic compartment has been previously reported in leukemias. The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between p33ing1b cytoplasmic transfer and lymph node ...
متن کاملCorrelation between nasopharyngeal carcinoma tumor volume and the 2002 International Union Against Cancer tumor classification system
BACKGROUND The correlation between primary tumor volume and nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) UICC 2002 T classification, N classification and distant metastasis after radiation therapy was discussed to provide further evidence for the inclusion of tumor volume into the TNM classification staging system. METHODS Between February 2001 and December 2008, 666 patients with NPC treated with intensit...
متن کاملCoexistence of Granular Cell Tumor with Squamous Cell Carcinoma on the Tongue: A Case Report
Introduction: Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are rare and mostly benign soft tissue tumors. Though they have been reported in all parts of body, they are generally located in the head and neck region, especially on the tongue. Some malign forms exist, but these have been rarely reported. Granular cell tumors have a neural origin and, in immunohistochemical evaluations, they express S-100 and neuro...
